I am using "xmh" and have problems with automatic incorporation of all incoming mail into inbox. My .forward file "| /usr/local/lib/slocal -user rbeck" My .maildelivery file default,-,|,R,"/usr/local/lib/rcvstore +inbox" I have tried it with quotes and with quotes in both files. When I click the middle mouse button on the inbox folder nothing is in it and I then have to incorporate new mail. Thank you, Robert Beck rbeck@ri.cmu.edu

Make sure your .maildelivery file does not allow for group or world write. "slocal" checks to make sure that .maildelivery cannot be written to by either the world or group. If either the world or group can write to .maildelivery, "slocal" stuffs the incoming mail message into your normal UNIX mail folder. - Alan Sengillo PHONE: (716) 726-9716 - - Internet: sengillo@isdc00.kodak.com - - USMAIL: Eastman Kodak Co., Dept. 698, 2 1 EP, Rochester NY, 14653-5108 -

I've been having problems using my .maildelivery file with slocal.... The file looks something like this: #field pattern action result string Subject report | A "cat report|mail $(sender)" default - | A "rcvdist esaffle" This file is in a secondary account and the default works when the subject line is not report. It forwards my mail to my account just fine. The problem comes when the subject line IS report. It doesn't seem to want to mail the reportfile back to the sender. I don't receive anything back at all. Anybody got any ideas about it? I read this group, but I prefer email at : esaffle@gmuvax2.gmu.edu or esaffle@gmuvax Thanks in advance. Ed
